Description

This anthology in three volumes is the outcome of a monumental project. It consists of selections in translation of Indian literature from the beginning to AD 1100. Volume Two covers Classical Sanskrit, Prakrit and Apabhramsa.

The selections of passages included in these volumes focus on the Indian world view, man's life in general and particular, and how these are reflected in literature. The anthology provides a fairly detailed historical survey which reveals the major trends and changes in the development of literatures during the given period.

Volume Two covers Classical Sanskrit, Prakrit and Apabhramsa. The selection of passages in translation for the anthology is based upon the criteria of literary excellence, of the use of language in more innovative ways and of their socio-cultural values.
